Just kidding, yeah, it's only a matter of time. Then again, anything can happen at any given time.

A super volcano can erupt in yellow stone park.
Yes, happens every 250 000 years give or take a million depending on the given volcanologists interpretation of time (the earth spun faster back then so carbon dating is ABSOLUTELY flawed)... don't hold your breath

This happens a number of times during a given year, depending on the suns 11 year cycle, it is in a higher phase now so we get hit by them every month or so. A 'big one' does about a centimeters worth of damage to our magnetic field which goes back to normal soon after, so unless we are talking electronics? We'll be fine..

There is evidence the poles are already shifting, however they wont reach the other side for about 3000 years at its current pace... feel anything yet? Me neither...

We are hit all the time, one landed in the Nairobi desert in 2008... we were fine.. The big ones that could cause a problem aren't on trajectory to hit us in the next 100 years so we are fine. A mid sized one can do significant damage still but they are currently working on marking every single one, they spot 3000 in a given night... not bad huh?


***spoiler alert*** You're all going to grow old, accept it. Living in fear only makes you lead a miserable life.
